Train to Another World
Chapter 400: Land of Death
Regardless of the outcome, Old Pierre thought he had embraced Li Zhuoguang. If nothing else, just say that the two bottles of distilled liquor in his arms can be considered family heirlooms as long as they are properly preserved.
If necessary, they will be put up for auction. The resources obtained in exchange will allow Tide City's city guard to expand to three times its current size, and it can be maintained for a long time.
Since his lord was so generous, Old Pierre became even more concerned about what Li Zhuoguang told him. He promised that after solving the problem in Wangya City, he would investigate the path of elemental creatures as the top priority in Tide City.
With confidence in his heart, Old Pierre sent a letter directly to Wangya City and made an appointment with Wangya City's new city lord to negotiate outside Haichao City three days later. The reason why we made the appointment so urgently was because we were afraid that the fruit would spoil over time.
After accepting Li Zhuoguang's solicitation, Old Pierre certainly didn't have to return the food, but he was reluctant to eat it by himself. So he decided to use good water on the cracked area, and used the fruit left by his lord to shock Wangya City and let them know that he was different now.
Of course, Lao Pierre also informed Li Zhuoguang of his intentions very wisely. Li Zhuoguang took matters into his own hands and let him make his own decision. But at the same time, Lao Pierre also invited Li Zhuoguang to participate in the negotiations three days later.
Li Zhuoguang glanced at Ariana, who estimated the distance and said, "Half a day to go, half a day to come back, and one day to deal with things and make repairs. If the negotiation takes place in the evening, we can make it."
Only then did Lao Pierre remember that Li Zhuoguang and the others hired Ariana as a bodyguard to protect them on the road. As for where Li Zhuoguang and the others were going, Li Zhuoguang didn't tell them, and Old Pierre didn't ask.
After all, in this realm, outside the city are almost all wastelands and deserts. In addition to wastelands and deserts, there are also some remaining resource points. Or there are ancient wells that are still producing water, or moist places where fungi grow, or underground caves where there are many reptiles.
These are all wealth. When ordinary people or forces discover them, they will remember their location and use them regularly. Those with a little bit of strength would station people there to guard them.
So when people find out that someone is traveling for a purpose, if they don't want to be misunderstood by others and cause a fight, it's best to ask less.
Old Pierre just thoughtfully prepared a pack car for the seniors and the others. As for the food, after Li Zhuoguang repeatedly declined, Old Pierre took it back.
As for this pack car, it is quite interesting. In this world, humans are almost considered large animals, and it is really difficult for other domestic animals to survive. Only some big nobles have the spare capacity to raise some poultry.
Therefore, the animal power of this cart is using elemental creatures. After capturing an elemental creature of suitable size, a special method is used to drill a hole in its body to reach its core, and then pour special poisonous sand into it to corrode the core and weaken the elemental creature.
In this way, they cannot break free from the yoke that is driven into their bodies. As for the driver, he did not sit in the car. Instead, he made a long length from the yoke and made a small chair in front of the elemental creature's head.
Although elemental creatures are tireless, their intelligence is too low. After being put into the car, I couldn't turn around and could only see the front. Seeing someone in front of him, he wanted to get closer and attack. This movement caused the car body to move. The driver sitting in front can control the elemental creatures to turn left and right as long as he adjusts his posture to achieve the purpose of turning.
Among the people, Ariana was the only one who could control this kind of car, and she was the only one who knew the way, so she acted as the driver, sitting on the small chair in front, and drove the cart out of the city.
It can be seen that this world had a relatively brilliant civilization before the disaster. Although supplies are scarce now, many craftsmanship has been passed down, such as this pack car. Although it looks simple, it actually has a shock absorber system.
The wheel is not just a wooden wheel. In addition to the main structure being wooden, there are metal components on it, and the periphery of the wheel is also wrapped with a layer of something similar to rubber.
As the elemental creatures ran, the cart drove quickly across the wasteland. Ariana, on the other hand, would jump on the back of the elemental creature from time to time, open the lid of the hole, and pour in an appropriate amount of poisonous sand.
According to Ariana, this is a technical job. If you put too little poisonous sand, the elemental creature will lose control, and if you put too much, it will make it too weak and affect its speed.
As the cart moved forward, Li Zhuoguang found that the ground along the way was getting drier and drier, and even the rock began to turn white.
Ariana explained from the front: "From here on, it is the land of death. The white coarse sand on the ground is all coarse salt. Legend has it that this place used to be a sea, and the nearby Haichao City and Wangya City were established. At first, its name did not refer to the sea of sand and cliffs.”
With that said, Ariana raised her hand, and the water ring she wore on her hand began to spray water, forming a thin curtain of water that enveloped the entire carriage.
A strong wind seemed to be blowing outside, which picked up the salt particles on the ground and began to hit the water curtain, causing ripples. But everyone inside the water curtain didn't feel anything at all. Instead, they felt that the surrounding air had become moist.
"The hot wind blowing outside now is very hot. If ordinary people are exposed to this wind, they will be burned and the water in the body will be evaporated faster. Replenishing water with fresh internal organs and blood is simply not enough.
Even if you have enough water and special clothes to resist the hot wind, ordinary people cannot resist the coarse salt particles blown up by the wind.
Unless you are a strong person with plenty of water, ordinary people cannot pass through the Land of Death. Because of the constant hot wind, standing outside the Land of Death and looking inside, you can only see a vast expanse of white, and you will not know that there is a crater in the center of the Land of Death. "
Soon, as the cart moved forward, everyone saw the crater that Ariana mentioned. It was indeed a magnificent mountain. Li Zhuoguang suspected that this mountain was an active volcano under the sea in the past.
After approaching the volcano, Ariana began to circle the foot of the mountain. After a while, she seemed to see something and drove the car behind a huge rock.
Before the car stopped, two people lifted the white animal skin blanket and jumped out. To be precise, they were not people, but elves. They first nodded respectfully to Ariana, and then looked at Li Zhuoguang and others in the car with curious eyes.
They did not ask, it seemed that Ariana had a high status in her tribe. But Ariana took the initiative to say: "They are my friends. Whether it is the water ring or the magic of water and forest creation, they were all given by them."
The two elves heard the words, and immediately showed a fiery and excited look, and immediately knelt on one knee in front of the cart.
